Rules & Policies

Clear, Fair, Upfront

The Ground Rules,
Written in Plain English

We believe in saying things clearly before you move in, not after. Here are Areca’s house rules, deposit terms, food timings, guest policy and everything else that keeps the community safe and pleasant for everyone. Nothing in fine print — ask us before you book if anything isn’t clear.
